I'm trying to test an AngularJS app with Testacular in Windows 8 64-bit.

When I run the "yeoman test" or "testacular start" command I get an error saying; "The system cannot find the path specified":

C:\Users\me\Dropbox\GitHub\Studentportalen\studentportalen>yeoman test

Running "test" task

Aborted due to warnings.

I've tried setting Testacular to use Chrome instead of Phantomjs, but get the same error. So PhantomJS is not the problem.

I've heard it happens because Node.js doesn't like 64-bit Windows (?). A workaround could be to set up a 32-bit VM for testing, but that is obviously not optimal.

Is there any solution to this problem?

I just came across this problem too. I found that to run the Chrome version I had to create a system variable called "CHROME_BIN" pointing at my chrome.exe file. So I just tried creating a "PHANTOMJS_BIN" variable that pointed to my phantom.cmd file and "hey presto" it worked :)
